"Ohmigod, that Tarrasque just wrote Japanese graffiti all over the wall! You monster!!! What does it say?"

the House Hunters make great monsters for unsuspecting PCs.
hyulf said:Check out Malhavoc's "When the Sky Falls". It has some great suggestions for meteor's striking the world, their impact (no pun intended) on the world and different events. I will be having a meteor strike in my campaign world except it will be filled with demons from Mongoose's Slayer's Guide to Demons. The players won't know what to expect.
The Apocalyptic Template is quite nasty. I used it on a Frost Salamander (MM2) and the players really didn't like me. Quite the epic monster.
